This series on “challenges in Singapore health insurance” is based on my personal observations over >20 years in practice.

These posts and videos do not represent the various organizations nor healthcare facilities I am associated with.

My purpose is purely to raise awareness, and hope for everyone to take a more active interest in your health insurance, ask relevant questions and take ownership of cost management.

Did you know that even if you are diagnosed with breast cancer during pregnancy, it is possible to have treatment and carry the baby to term?
It’s not easy, but it can be done. Be strong, stay positive- listen to your team of docs to coordinate the best care plan for you.

Breast cancer can kill- it is true. But early detection saves lives, and women can go on to have a long and fulfilling life.
For some, the disease comes back, or it is an aggressive form, or there was just no warning and patients first notice it at a very advanced stage.
We honour those who have passed away from this illness; and I want to encourage everyone 💕to stay strong and hopeful.

I was at Tatler a few weeks ago for an invited shoot:

Sabrina Sabrinagoh, Darren and myself are featured in this Tatler article on breast cancer awareness.

Sabrina had treatment for breast cancer, Darren’s mum had breast cancer, and I look after women with breast cancer.
